Abstract Aims Cardiac decompensation in cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) results in systemic congestion usually treated with diuretics. When despite high doses of diuretics, response is poor, ultrafiltration (UF) appears to be a useful and safe technique.

Abstract Aims Plasma volume status (PVS) is recognized as a marker of systemic congestion, but its clinical utility in patients with mitral regurgitation (MR) undergoing transcatheter edge‐to‐edge mitral valve repair (M‐TEER) has not been well established. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of PVS in these patients.

Dapagliflozin effect on functional mitral regurgitation and myocardial remodelling: The DEFORM trial
Abstract Aims Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is associated with adverse outcomes in patients with heart failure, and current guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) offers limited efficacy in managing FMR. This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic impact of the sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) dapagliflozin in patients with ...

ABSTRACT Background Nephrectomies are major surgeries often required in ADPKD for symptom control, removal of septic/malignant foci, and to create space for renal transplantation. Whether ADPKD patients should proceed with nephrectomy/ies should be guided by patient characteristics, technical considerations and anticipated risks and benefits. Methods A

Abstract Albuminuria, the abnormal presence of albumin in urine, is a key marker of kidney damage and a strong predictor of kidney and cardiovascular outcomes. Its clinical significance has evolved from early historical observations to its current role in chronic kidney disease (CKD) detection, risk stratification and treatment monitoring.

A Dose‐Tailored Anti‐Plasma Cell Regimen Lowers the Mortality of Late‐Stage Cardiac Amyloidosis
The present study was designed to assess the efficacy and safety of a dose‐tailored BD regimen and a dose‐tailored DBD regimen in patients with LCCA at Mayo Stage III. Both the two regimens markedly increased survival rate and time in those patients and the dose‐tailored DBD regimen was superior to the dose‐tailored BD regimen in both efficacy and ...

Tolvaptan as a tool in renal physiology
For decades, the Brattleboro rat has been a useful model in kidney physiology. These animals manifest central diabetes insipidus (lack of circulating vasopressin) due to a mutation in the vasopressin-neurophysin gene. V2 receptor-mediated vasopressin actions in the kidney can be assessed in these animals by infusing the V2-selective vasopressin analog ...

Abstract Aims Dapagliflozin (DAPA), a sodium‐glucose co‐transporter 2 inhibitor, has been shown to reduce cardiovascular mortality among patients with chronic heart failure. We aimed to evaluate the impact on a worsening renal function (WRF) by adding DAPA as compared to standard decongestive therapy with loop diuretics alone.

Review of Tolvaptan in the Treatment of Hyponatremia [PDF]
Hyponatremia is a very common electrolyte disorder and is a significant independent predictor of medical prognosis and costs. Tolvaptan is a vasopressin receptor antagonist developed for the treatment of hyponatremia. It has its principal application in the treatment of euvolemic and hypervolemic hyponatremia.
